Last night I was at work and finally had enough several people who are immigrants here constantly talk about how much they dislike America, and things American. Finally, having heard enough I asked them plain and simple "Why did you come here, and why do you stay if you hate it so much?". I work in healthcare and due to the demand many people from other countries come here to work, from the Phillipines, Africa and many are from the Carriebean. Honestly, I never hear the nurses from the Phillipines speak badly of America except to say they miss home.
People might think that I am one of those anti-immigrant folks that constantly harp against immigration nothing could be further from the truth. My family are fourth generation Italians and believe that immigration is a good thing. However, no one in my family has ever said they hate America or point out every thing that is wrong.

My husband had an auto loan back in 1999 and it when into repossession but he paid it off in full and It is still on his credit report now in 2007 and it shows as an unpaid repo. How can we get this off there ? Also he has collection accounts from 1999 that are still on his report do we pay these off to get them removed? I heard that can make your credit worse true or not ?

I know there is a question of 300 spartans vs. 300 vikings, but if possible, do some research in the tactics, average numbers fought in a battle, equipment, and what not.

such as match.com etc? I have a relative who is interested in meeting people and I suggested some of these sites. However, I'm interested in knowing what some of your opinions are. What about the honesty of people who describe themselves and the like? Do you find they are honest and sane? Thanks for any replies in advance! **Thank God I'm married and don't have to go through this!!**

This is a 2000 Chrysler Cirrus, and the squealing is not necessarily constent. When first starting to move, the noise doesn't start but then it begins and will continue most of the time, but again not all the time.

I'm about to be divorced and have a 3 yr old son from the marriage. Does that matter to single guys? If so, why and when? I'm generally talking about guys with no children....because it would be absurd for a man with children to not want a woman with a child. Just curious!!
